Pragati Maidan, Mandi House, Patel Chowk, Central Secretariat, Udyog Bhawan, Khan Market, Race Course, Rajiv Chowk and Barakhamba stations will remain closed tomorrow.

The closing of stations came following a direction from Delhi Police.

"The stations will remain closed till DMRC gets further orders from the Delhi Police. However, interchange will be allowed at Central Secretariat station," a DMRC official said.

The decision was taken after protests over the gangrape of a young girl erupted in Raisina Hill, the seat of power.
